AUSTRALIA'S PRIME MINISTER.
MR STANLEY BRUCE'S REMARK- ABLE CAREER.
Mr. S. M. Bruce, Prime Minister of Australia (and the youngest Prime Minister in the Empire), gallant soldier, notable athlete, and scholar, suggests a romance rather than reality. To have! been captain of one's school, to win one's blue at Cambridge, to be a barrister and great business organiser, to bear a charmed life as a junior officer through the horrors of Gallipoli and the Flanders campaign, to become Prime Minister of one's country-and to be then only 40 | years old! And it is also natural enough,.. because here is a man of such courage, directness, and clear-sightedness as to make all things possible.
Mr. Bruce was born in Victoria, and received his early education at the Church of England Grammar School, Melbourne. That was also the school of Alfred Deakin, another illustrious Prime Minister. It is a great institution, com- parable with the best of English public schools, and on its rolf of old scholars | are many of Australia's leading citizens.) Stanley Bruce was still at school when the Imperial Act, constituting the Com-! monwealth of Australia, received the Royal Assent, As a schoolboy he was notable without being offensively so. As
